Product Details
Photonic Universe is an official distributor of products from Victron Energy - the?ÿglobally renowned manufacturer of high quality?ÿhybrid power electronics. Victron Energy solar charge controllers have a longstanding reputation for their outstanding reliability, innovative design and superior build quality. This Victron 75V 15A MPPT?ÿcontroller comes?ÿfrom the intelligent BlueSolar range, which uses the latest ultrafast MPPT technology to?ÿmaximise energy harvest whilst maintaining optimal battery health. BlueSolar MPPT controllers uniquely boast?ÿan intelligent battery life function, along with?ÿadvanced communication options for remote system monitoring. Ultrafast MPPT Technology: This 15A MPPT solar charge controller is designed to deliver the highest possible energy yield in the shortest amount of time.?ÿThis is achieved?ÿthrough the use of high speed Maximum Power Point Tracking technology, which?ÿtracks the maximum power voltage point of the solar panels as it varies depending on sunlight exposure and temperature.?ÿ This?ÿtechnology enables the controller to produce?ÿup to?ÿ30% greater energy yield than PWM controllers and as much as 10% more power than slower MPPT controllers. This advanced technology?ÿallows the controller to?ÿperform extremely well?ÿin low-light or cloudy conditions, as the controller consistently strives to extract?ÿthe maximum?ÿavailable power from the solar array. Inbuilt safety protection: Fully equipped with an extensive range of safety features, this controller?ÿoffers complete?ÿprotection against potential hazards such as battery reverse polarity, load short circuit, and battery overheating -?ÿmonitored via the internal temperature sensor. The controller also has self-diagnostic capability?ÿand highlights?ÿany system errors using sophisticated fault-targeting technology.?ÿThese?ÿare signalled via the high intensity LED indicators.?ÿ?ÿ Intelligent 'BatteryLife' function: To prevent complete discharge of the battery?ÿand avoid potentially permanent damage,?ÿthis controller is equipped with the Victron BatteryLife function; a state-of-the-art feature designed to extend the lifetime of the battery by monitoring and controlling the output of?ÿexcessive loads. Using an intelligent algorithm, the controller will continuously monitor the battery state of charge, and if required (e.g. during periods of poor weather), will?ÿgradually adjust the load disconnect threshold until a full 100% recharge is consistently achieved on a?ÿweekly basis. Alternatively, the load voltage disconnect point can be?ÿmanually configured to your preferred level, using the VictronConnect software (see below). Advanced programming and monitoring: The user can connect an optional MPPT Control panel (sold separately) to the controller to access a range of monitoring and programming functions. The display shows charging parameters (voltage, current,?ÿpower) for the solar panel, battery and load, as well as 30 day?ÿperformance data. The user can also adjust the load settings and?ÿspecifically set the duration and voltage of each charging stage.?ÿ?ÿ Alternatively, by connecting?ÿthe controller to a Victron VE Direct Bluetooth Dongle , or the VE Direct USB cable (both sold separately), the user can gain access to the VictronConnect App , ?ÿwhich unlocks?ÿnumerous possibilities for?ÿadvanced programming and remote monitoring of your BlueSolar system. Once the controller is paired with the app,?ÿa wide range of?ÿadditional features are made available, including: Live data transmission: Real-time information is displayed including solar panel output, battery voltage and current (flowing into and out of the battery), battery state of charge, load status and consumption. Detailed?ÿdata logs: System activity for the past 30 days is available to?ÿview; either as in-depth daily logs or as a monthly summary. These easy-view graphics display daily energy yield, maximum recorded power and voltage, time spent in each charging stage, minimum and maximum recorded battery voltages, error records and total energy counters. User-defined battery charging algorithm: Option to disable preset?ÿvalues in favour of?ÿpersonalised charging parameters, including user-defined?ÿabsorption voltage, absorption time, float voltage, equalisation voltage and temperature compensation settings. Load configuration: Option to choose from one of the pre-set load management programs or create a user-defined program. Includes a streetlight function to control the duration and brightness of nighttime lighting. The VictronConnect app is compatible with?ÿmost mobile devices and computers, including Android and iOS smartphones, tablets, iPads, MacBooks, Windows PCs/laptops. Other features: The Victron BlueSolar MPPT?ÿ75-15 model is ideal for a wide range of applications as it is resistant to extreme temperatures, high altitudes and marine environments. The unit enclosure is IP43 water resistant with resin encapsulation of the internal electrical components. This solar charge controller is also compatible with a wide range of battery types, including AGM, Gel , Tubular plate and Lithium batteries (requires Bluetooth dongle or USB interface cable to adjust battery type).
